When is it time to get marriage counseling?

One or even both partners may view going to see a counselor as a last resort, but finding a trained and competent marriage counselor can bring calm, understanding and hope to a very tense and difficult time in your relationship.

What will I get out of marriage counseling at Sync Counseling Center?

Identify – Understand – Find A Solution – Reconnect!

At Sync, a professional marriage counselor will help bring your relationship issues to light. For couples living in what feels like a loveless marriage or a state of deep pain and fear, it is critical to identify the problems specific to your relationship and uncover the key dynamics that cause partners to revisit the same problems over and over in their relationship. Once the problem is identified and both partners are aware, solutions are within reach.

What should I do if my marriage is in trouble? Or if I’m considering divorce?

So what happened? How did our connection that seemed so easy and life giving turn into something so difficult or at times intolerable? Many times couples cannot answer that question. Or, it has become too risky to even ask the question, resulting in a slow but steady drifting apart.

Good marriage therapy creates a safe place for couples to live in these questions. At its essence, marriage therapy is a process of helping partners establish a more reliable and direct connection to each other.

What can you do right now?

• Realize that ALL marriages experience difficult times and that many couples are able to work through their problems and discover new hope, romance, trust, and partnership.

Marriage Counseling and Relationship Problems FAQ

What if my spouse will not agree to see a counselor?

If your spouse is hesitant to see a counselor, here are a few options:

• One of our trained counselors will be available to speak by phone with your spouse to address any questions or concerns he/she may have prior to scheduling a first appointment.
• You may want to consider beginning your own process of individual therapy, as this can often be an important complement to couples therapy.

What will happen at our first marriage counseling session?

Each partner will come away with an understanding of why connecting has become difficult. This is not a blaming session. Rather it is the beginning to understand how you have drifted apart. This is crucial, because we cannot change things we don’t understand. The therapist will outline a process for getting the help you need.

How many sessions should I expect to attend before I see improvement?

If a couple decides to come to therapy they will already begin to change. Becoming “willing” is one of the most important elements for change. However, depending on the level of crisis in the marriage, most couples begin to see improvement in 3 – 10 sessions.

Does the counseling staff at Sync ever recommend that a married couple get a divorce?

The decision to divorce is one not to be taken lightly. It is a decision that must be made by the marital couple. Most couples get a divorce not because of what they know, but because of what they “don’t know” about themselves and their partner, and how to live in an intimate relationship. Sync staff help couples discover what they don’t know about making a relationship work. Many times this prevents couples from divorce, but if a couple comes to the conclusion of divorce, Sync staff will guide and support them in the process.

My spouse cheated on me. What can I do?

If there has been infidelity in your relationship, you may be feeling a wide array of emotions from anger and betrayal to hurt and sadness.  It can often be difficult to reach out to family or friends for support when such a personal and private betrayal happens in a marriage or dating relationship.

• Find a safe place where you can begin to talk about your experience.
• Isolation in painful times can lead to increased emotional difficulties.
• Consider seeking individual counseling for yourself to sort through the many emotions you may be feeling.
• If both partners are open to seeking help for the relationship, contact one of our marriage counselors today.
